III:4 Fibre suspensions in contractions

In the contraction of a head box the fibres of the suspension will orient according to the strain field. The degree of orientation depends on e.g. the strength of the strain and its spacial distribution, appearence of turbulence and its properties and the size, concentration and bending stiffness of the fibres. Knowledge of these properties influence on the orientation of the fibres facilitate controll of product quality.
